Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Double Blanche du Lac
◎ Appearance
Pale straw-yellow with a hazy, opalescent character that remains unfiltered. The head is dense and persistent, clinging to the glass with fine lacing. Bright carbonation lifts the suspended grain particles, creating an inviting, cloudy appearance characteristic of the style.
◌ Aroma
Candied orange and marmalade lead the nose with a bright, citrus-forward character. Coriander brings an herbal, slightly peppery counterpoint, while the dry-hop blend of Hallertau, Willamette and Cascade adds subtle floral and piney undertones. Beneath these aromatic layers lies a soft, grainy maltiness that grounds the composition without dominating.
◐ Taste
The palate opens with bright orange and marmalade sweetness, followed by a distinctive coriander warmth that extends across the mid-palate. A fuller body than typical witbier carries caramel notes that add depth and richness. Bitterness emerges gradually in the mid-palate and builds steadily, creating tension between sweetness and a dry, herbal edge.
◑ Finish
The finish is notably long and dry, with lingering coriander spice and a mildly bitter, herbal aftertaste. The caramel sweetness recedes, leaving a clean, slightly peppery conclusion that invites the next sip.
Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Double Blanche du Lac
Serve cold to preserve the delicate citrus and spice aromas. Too warm and the yeast esters become heavy — too cold and the coriander disappears.
The tall, slender wheat beer glass holds the full 50cl pour and shows off the hazy golden colour. The wide mouth lets citrus and spice aromas drift upward freely.
Best consumed fresh. Citrus and spice notes fade after 3–4 months. Drink within 6 months of packaging.
